Well, guessing from the DNS-entries for the two IPs: 119.149.219.193.in-addr.arpa domain name pointer elre-56.vtu.lt. 38.95.219.193.in-addr.arpa domain name pointer gw2vu.vtu.lt. I'd guess the root cause is the gateway. tcpdump reports the following: 09:43:59.888301 IP x.y.z > elre-56.vtu.lt: ICMP echo request, id 61966, seq 0, length 64 119.149.219.193.in-addr.arpa. (57) 09:43:59.955493 IP gw2vu.vtu.lt > x.y.z: ICMP host elre-56.vtu.lt unreachable - admin prohibited filter, length 36 So the "problem" is that the gateway is blocking ping-packets. As for the smtp-problem, I get a RST-packet back from your server IP (not the gateway). You don't have a locally installed firewall or the like? -- regards, Christopher Pharo Glæserud -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
